Gordon Strachan is ready for a shake-up of Boro after telling his players: "Enough is enough."

The Scot says it is no good his players putting on a show in the last two games of the season - because they "don't matter."

Strachan was livid at Boro's performance at West Brom where defeat ended their play-off hopes.

And he will now weed out players who can't handle his plans for next season, and build a "consistent" squad.

David Wheater could become the latest home grown star to go after Strachan admitted he might not be able to keep him if there is top flight interest in the summer.

Others who are vulnerable include high earners Jeremie Aliadiere and Julio Arca. Gary O'Neil will also move on with Fulham interested.

Strachan said: "We've had two years of rough times here and we've got to say enough is enough now.

"It is painful but the only way you can deal with this sort of thing is to start looking to the future.

"We have to develop a squad that's consistent. Hopefully over the next year we'll have a consistent dressing room where there's not much chopping and changing.

"We have to do things in the summer to ensure we get a group of players who we know will be here till next summer, and that will be beneficial to everyone.

"I have to find out now who is capable of doing the workload for next year - but I knew what I had to do in the summer anyway.

"I already knew what was needed. It's not a case of people playing well in the last two games - it doesn't matter any more. We'd like to win, but your character is tested in times of crisis. There's nothing at stake now.

"I know what you need as a player, a captain, a manager and as a coach. I know what's needed in the dressing room to be successful. That's what I've got to do, make that dressing room one that can be successful. Our season starts now."
